Agathe is a revolutionist with very firm and harsh ideals. She grew up envying the nobles in their frilly dresses and dances while she didn't have the chance to even eat a crumble of bread daily. She used to dream of becoming rich, but reality soon shattered upon her making her realise that what was needed was equality, obtainable only through a revolution in her eyes. She is very strong‐willed, serious and respected amongst the other revolutionists.
She wears male clothing to rebel and show her strength and intelligence are equal to those of men.
One day she fell in love with Jeanne Aphrodite Augustine, one of the Orleans Duke's daughters who is a very rich aristocrat. I still have to choose how they met (because it would be hard for a noble like her to randomly see her) but I am sure that even though Jeanne Aphrodite is a lesbian, she doesn't love Agathe. Not because she is poor — Jeanne Aphrodite is a very open‐minded woman as strange as it is for the situation — simply because she sees her as an acquaintance.
Revolutionaries’ activities on the day of the Champ-de-Mars massacre
Pauline Léon took part in the demonstration. On her way home from there, she used her fists to defend a friend against the family of a national guard. This is the first conserved trace of any militant activities from her side. (Pauline Léon, une républicaine révolutionnaire (2006) by Claude Guillon).
Manon Roland wrote in her memoirs that she on the day in question had been at the jacobins ”where I had witnessed the agitations caused by the sad events on Champ-de-Mars.” Manon remembers walking home eleven o’clock in the evening and bumping into François and Louise Robert. Louise (who it might be worth mentioning would have been seven months pregnant at this point) explains that ”my husband was writing the petition on the altar of the homeland, I was at his side. We escaped the slaughter without daring to retire neither to our house nor that of one of friends.” She therefore asks if they can take shelter at Manon’s place. Manon happily agrees, and brings them over to hôtel Britannique, rue Guénégaud. The next morning, the Roberts start talking through the window with an acquaintance by the name of Vachard, whom they invite up. Vachard speaks loudly about yesterday’s events, boasting about having run his sabre through a National Guardsman. Manon finds this conduct to be careless, and asks the Roberts to tell their friend to leave, which they do. The Roberts themselves leave around noon.
Forty years after the fact, Sergent-Marceau claimed that he on the morning of the day in question had been at Danton’s place together with Desmoulins, Fréron, Fabre, Santerre, Brune, Duplain and Momoro, discussing the lynching of two men at the Champ-de-Mars. At nine o’clock, Legendre arrives and tells the group that two men had come home to him and said: We are charged with warning you to get out of Paris, bring Danton, Camille and Fréron, let them not be seen in the city all day, it is Alexandre Lameth who engages this. Camille, Danton and Fréron follow this advice and leave, and were therefore most likely not present for the demonstration and shootings (Revue rétrospective, ou Bibliothèque historique: contenant des mémoires et documens authentiques, inédits et originaux, pour servir à l'histoire proprement dite, à la biographie, à l'histoire de la littérature et des arts (1834),p. 284-285). Desmoulins is nevertheless confirmed to have shown up at the jacobins’ evening session the very same day to talk about the split with the Feuillants and bring to attention the fact that his journal since six weeks back has been unable to reach Marseille. Sergent-Marceau too was there.
Robespierre did, according to the memoirs of his sister Charlotte, see the shootings with his own eyes. He is confirmed to have been at the jacobins’ evening session and there have intervened twice, first asking that commissioners be appointed to find out and report back what exactly is going on in Paris, and then lamenting the sad state of affairs. Both Charlotte, Fréron and Philippe Lebas Jr. write it was on this day Robespierre moved in with the Duplay family on rue Saint-Honoré 398 Charlotte claims that this happened when he was walking away from the massacre following said street. A considerable crowd then showed up, recognized him and started shouting vive Robespierre!, which caused Maurice Duplay to come out and offer Robespierre to rest up in his house. Fréron on the other hand writes that when leaving the jacobins in the evening and crossing its courtyard, which was filled with Lafayette’s soldiers who ”vomit[ed] imprecations and threats against the Jacobins” Robespierre got so scared that he had to grab onto Lecointre and La Poype in order to support himself. Not daring to go home he asked Lecointre if he knew any patriot in the vicinity of the Tuileries who could give him shelter for the night, whereupon the latter brought him to the Duplays. Philippe jr simply writes that on the day in question, a rumor had spread that ”the most influential members of the democratic party, and in particular Robespierre” were going to get arrested, causing his grandfather to offer him asylum. Charlotte claims her brother wanted to leave after an hour or two, but was made to stay for dinner and kept in the house for days.
Pétion too was at the jacobins’ evening session, where he held speech about the founding of the Feuillant club the day before, calling for calm in these ”stormy times” and for a circular to be sent to all the sister clubs.
Brissot admitted in a interrogation held October 15 1793 that his ”great occupations” had hindered him from attending the demonstration. He is confirmed to have been at the jacobin club in the evening and there have read aloud the circular to the sister societies regarding the split with the Feuillants Pétion proposed writing. At the very end the circular says the following, apropos of the day’s event on Champ-de-Mars: ”Something has just happened at Champ-de-Mars: the blood of the people has flowed. Brothers and friends, beware of false stories and slander that may be directed at you. We owe you the truth, you know that.” The circular was approved.
Duforney, Régnier and Royer are also confirmed to have been at the Jacobins’ evening session.

One reason I can think for Saint-Just to perhaps return to "Antoine" is that styling yourself "Louis-Léon" while demanding a king's head is a bit on the nose.
Léon wasn't a popular first name yet, and his grandfather's name was Léonard. He took a traditional name, stripped the -ard, and ended up with a name that unambiguously means "lion". The animal his friend Gateau compares him to, and who rules most of the month he was born during. I don't know how important astrology was to them but he has to at least know he was born a few days only after the Sun crosses from Leo into Virgo? It's as if he looked at the calendar, and said, "No, I'm keeping the Lion."
But, like I said, Louis-Léon has bad optics. It's a bit much in term of symbolism - and we know he liked symbolism.
He believed Antoine came from the Greek anthos - flower, which is where Florelle is derived from. Returning to Antoine is what you might call a masterpiece of revolutionary branding. It's a perfect shift from Leo to Virgo - from the burning ambition of his younger years to the transcendental ascetism of his last two years.
He gets elected as Louis-Léon and dies as Antoine.
I can imagine how some of you poor souls might not understand him though.
How do you even begin to comprehend a man who managed to completely conquer his own roaring inner lion, only to face the guillotine with the quiet elegance of a flower?
Fortunately I'm a Leo Sun with a Rising Virgo so I Get It 💅
I hate how the common people of France àre depicted by royalists. They’re so dehumanised. Genuinely described like rabid animals with no sense or humanity. It’s so fucking vile. Lamballe is à common case of this. I’ll be the first to say her death isnt anywhere near as violent or tragic as it’s often made out to be. Her pockets itemised. They didn’t even take her belongings. They asked her to denounce à despotic queen who had conspired to slaughter them with the aid of foreign forces. She refused. Their perspective is NEVER considered! I’m not saying Lamballe deserved it, but if you don’t decentre her narrative you demonise àn entire population.
I remember finding a really good blogpost (need to find it again lol) analyzing lamballe's death and how a lot of the mythology around it is pretty much a direct descendant of the pornographic phamplets about her but coopted by the royalists to encite pity mixed with a massive dose of anti revolutionary and classist (and racist! There is one account iirc where the description goes in a great amount of description on how one of the men assaulting her was black and the contrast of his darkness against her paleness) propaganda. And its so frustrating to see it being touted uncritically over and over again by people who try to coat it in a vaguely progressive coat of paint because they will accuse you of enjoying women's suffering while spouting ridiculously misogynistic fake facts and never extending the same grace to any of the republican women.
There is also a lot of disingenuousness on the September Massacres because yeah well they were brutal. Ok we all recognize that a lot of people died. But what exactly was the cause of those massacres? Surely it wasnt a reaction to the high climate of paranoia of a nation in war that had just been threatened with having its whole capital razed to the ground to protect the royal family and co! Surely if valmy hadnt happened the austrians would have made all parisians evaquate and not commit horrible atrocities that would make what happened to lamballe pale to the woman there! The storming of the tuileries and the september massacres only happened because the ugly poor angry ignorant peasants were jealous of the royals pretty dresses!
Marat est mort. Non, Marat n'est pas mort. Mettez-le au Panthéon ou jetez-le à l'égout, qu'importe, il renaît le lendemain. Il renaît dans l'homme qui n'a pas de travail, dans la femme qui n'a pas de pain, dans la fille qui se prostitue, dans l'enfant qui n'apprend pas à lire ; il renaît dans les greniers de Rouen, il renaît dans les caves de Lille; il renaît dans le grenier sans feu, dans le grabat sans couverture, dans le chômage, dans le prolétariat, dans le lupanar, dans le bagne, dans vos codes sans pitié, dans vos écoles sans horizon, et il se reforme de tout ce qui est l'ignorance, et il se recompose de tout ce qui est la nuit. Ah ! que la société humaine y prenne garde, on ne tuera Marat qu'en tuant la misère; Charlotte Corday n'a rien fait ; tant qu'il y aura des misérables, il y aura sur l'horizon un nuage qui peut devenir un fantôme, et un fantôme qui peut devenir Marat.
